We just finished a national security council meeting that started at 3 a.m.

Public forces are being deployed at the border, and all the assistance resources we have will be deployed in case of a massive influx of refugees.

The Colombian embassy in Venezuela is active and responding to calls for assistance from Colombians in Venezuela.

As members of the United Nations Security Council, we are seeking to convene the Council.
